A running joke with my husband is to tell the waitress he isn&#39;t sure he likes his food and he&#39;ll need another serving to make sure. :-)<br /><br />LezlieLezliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747969193923246804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606392701671180733.post-75677256837791388422009-12-11T13:17:43.156-06:002009-12-11T13:17:43.156-06:00I&#39;ve had my eye on this one, and now you&#39;v...I&#39;ve had my eye on this one, and now you&#39;ve convinced me to read it. I&#39;ve never been a waitress, but my daughter was a busser at age 15. She had a customer who complained about how terrible the lasagna was, and the plate was completely finished! Couldn&#39;t have been so bad! We&#39;ve laughed about this story for years.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606392701671180733.post-27186942335932123962009-12-11T08:10:15.565-06:002009-12-11T08:10:15.565-06:00Ladytink ~ It&#39;s an easy job to hate, that&#39;...Ladytink ~ It&#39;s an easy job to hate, that&#39;s for sure.
